NCDR: It's hot and I hate pants so...

I've started making myself dresses. Here is my first maxi dress. I love them because I don't have to shave my legs! Yay for being a lazy mama. On that note, please ignore the mess!

 

I can even nurse in it.

That's a mess?

Love it!  Did you use a pattern?

I like that fabric!  And yay for not shaving.  I last shaved before we went on vacation :P

Thanks mama! I used a Simplicity pattern (2580) although I tweaked it. Smaller waist, bigger hips, sleevless.

It's gorgeous I love that fabric, too. I've been debating getting some just to make a jersey scarf out of. I love jersey/knit scarfs for summer nights/fall (cool west coast weather.)

Nice job!  And yay to being able to nurse in the dress, it's impossible to find one you don't have to flip over your head.

Obviously the mess must be outside of the picture.    The dress is too cute!  I wish I had the patients to sew clothing.

It's gorgeous!  I was just thinking this morning how much I wanted a V-neck maxi dress, for the sole purpose of skipping shaves more often.  I could never make one myself though!

I was really confused for a minute after reading this.  I was imagining you as a crazy task master who takes advantage of patients who are hospitalized for long periods.

I have some jersey material coming my way for the sole purpose of making dresses/skirts so I can avoid pants.  I plan on at least 2 maxi skirts because my skin is super freakishly sensitive when I'm pg and shaving hurts.

Pretty! Great job!

I wish I could just throw on a dress some days. But I would have to shave, because long dress would make me look even shorter and I barely hit 5' as it is. Also, the thought of my thighs rubbing together makes me cringe. I better lose the extra weight before I get knocked up again.

Love the dress!  It's so pretty and I bet it looks great on!  And huge bonus being able to nurse in it.  Isn't it funny how that becomes such a big deal?

Also, I agree with PPs, that is not a mess

I love it!  I love that fabric & have been eyeing it for a while.

Also, that is definitely not a mess.

I also hate to shave! So yay for that.

I keep looking at the picture hoping that the mess will pop out to me... <side eye and raised eyebrow>

Also, that's a pretty awesome dress!!!

I only torture my daughter with my amateur sewing skills.  That dress is awesome.

Love it!

I need to learn to sew.
